Issue List
- Volume One - Issue One - August 2014 (PDF - 25Mb)
It has been my absolute pleasure to have been involved in this project celebrating, as it does, all that I have come to love and enjoy about this most wholesome of hobbies and the hugely supportive community that encompasses it. I would encourage all to get involved by identifying possible content and contacting the Editor-in-Chief directly. Finally a huge congratulations should go to Michael 'Millsy' Mills who managed to galvanise a group of charming, but disparate Gentlemen into producing something we all hope will continue to flourish, well done Sir!
What a wonderful idea! I already downloaded mine! Well done!

ReplyDeleteA huge team effort, masterminded superbly by Millsy.
DeleteIts a great looking issue I commend Michael for getting it out. I have some knowledge about the trials of getting disparate gentlemen together on a project its much like cat herding. And as the person in charge of the Devil's Kitten I know a lot about that.

DeleteHola
ReplyDeleteBuena iniciativa y gran idea
un saludo
Glad you enjoyed it J.D.
DeleteHello Michael! :) Very nice work and well presented. I am curios if also people living in the north(above Scotland) are allowed to send in articles for publication? I have the tools both to take pictures and also to make a nice graphical package.To give you a hint am I writing a tabletop-game called Hugg och slag (cut and blow) that contain wargame-rules for medieval sieges and big battles in the scale of 1:72.On top of this I have several topics on making scenery and skirmish in the pirate-era(age of sails). Keep up the good work.Looking forward reading next issue!!! :)Cheers/Peter
ReplyDeleteDear Peter, the joy of the publication is that it is online and of course doesn't worry about geographical restrictions or boundaries - so yes anyone can submit work. Just looking at some of what you have described they sound perfect and I would encourage you to contact the Editor-in-chief using the email address above. The idea is that the editor will change with each issue and is currently Dave Docherty, who has the blog 'One man and his brushes'. Best of luck and I hope to be reading some of your articles soon.
DeleteMany thanks for the hint, Michael.
ReplyDeleteI'm very much looking forward to reading your article about this excellent Whitechappel scene of yours.
Cheers
Stefan
Thank you Stefan, that is very kind of you.
DeleteI think this will really take off. What impressed me was the benefit of the improvement in graphic design from a blog. Made it much more readable.
ReplyDeleteWBQ was a great read and I enjoyed seeing even higher resolution photos of your Whitechapel piece.
ReplyDeleteFantastic idea ... if only I had something useful to contribute. I will definitely be checking the first issue out.
ReplyDeleteDownloading and checking it right now, great stuff! :)
